The person
Meret married into the crown while working as a nursery grafting apprentice. She still sleeps beside the winter glasshouses during hard frost. The unaffected palace sapling is her secret, kept to test whether warmth can be restored without taking it from somewhere else. She distrusts her grandson Bram’s enthusiasm for salvaged timber.
Place in the family
Their children are Ysabet Vey and Orla Vey. Family authority does not settle the disagreement described above.
Ysabet opened the warmwood groves during the refugee winter of 661 and has spent twenty-three years defending the consequences.
Orla refused a court marriage and took charge of the warning stations at Ochererbourne.
The western crown began as a compact between forest wardens and three coastal guilds.
Alaric wrote the rule requiring two witnesses for every living root cut.
The first large export convoy carried living cedar roots to foreign heat networks.
Crown cedars produced a pale annual ring during a year reported as ordinary growth.
